I thank you both very much for your help and advices.

There is a grass hill on the southern edge of that park, I think it will be perfect. Now I just need to wait for the wind and weather to cooperate with my plans.

My Stealth Sport was hand tossed, so I have an idea what to expect. The first time I was tossing it very hard and high, so it would balloon up and stall before I could even touch the sticks. I thought I wasn't tossing it high enough or hard enough, it just made things worse :-) I eventually got it by tossing it level with some down elevator. My only fear now is that I got used to the Steath Sport being able to recover from a stall in about 12 feet, I don't expect to have that luxury with the glider.

I did buy a small hi-start from dynaflite when I ordered my glider. It's only 25ft of 5/16 rubber. I'll try to get as much info as I can before trying it. The thought of "pieces scattered forever" gives me a unpleasant dejavu feeling.

I'll concentrate on the hand toss off the hill for now :-)

Thanks
